Video: Jack White, delinquent kids count 'Sixteen Saltines'

“Sixteen Saltines” is the second video from Jack White’s upcoming solo album “Blunderbuss,” and the video is a freaky nightmare that recalls the works of Harmony Korine — from “Kids” to “Gummo” to “Trash Humpers” — as well as “Chronicle” and even that one Lady Gaga tour video where her friend vomits blue stuff all over her. Check it out:

Scary stuff! We hope Jack is okay.

The video was directed by AJ Rojas, who also filmed a bunch of kids behaving badly in Earl Sweatshirt’s “Earl” video.

Meanwhile, buzz is building for “Blunderbuss,” which is due April 24. According to this tweet from @billboardbiz, the business end of Billboard magazine, it’s the “album of the year (so far) by a mile – best thing he’s ever done.” Count us excited.
